Seattle to be in “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives”
Fans of the Food Network show “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives” may be happy to know that Seattle is going to be in one of the upcoming shows early next year. The show, which predictably features diners, drive-ins and dives, with host Guy Fieri, travels around the country looking for good grubbing in both the classic and most unlikeliness of places.
I mention this because we were contacted a few days ago by someone on the crew of Page Productions who was essentially asking us for some recommendations for restaurants in the Seattle area to be on the show. We thought it was pretty cool for a show on the Food Network to ask us, so we happily obliged with a list of places below. So if you see any of these on the show next year, you’ll know who got them there! :)
- Dick’s Drive-In (We don’t need to tell you why)
- XXX (Triple X Rootbeer in Issaquah)
- Red Mill Burgers
- Beth’s Cafe (12 egg omelette anyone?)
- Gorditos (For those baby sized burritos)
- Ezell’s Famous Fried Chicken (Because everyone besides us seems to like them)
- Market House Corned Beef (Making their own corned beef since 1948 and on our must-review list)
- Dixie’s BBQ (”The Man” sauce is all you need to know)
- Paseo (We just went here and the review is up soon, but those Cuban pork burgers do live up to their rep)
- Fu Man Dumpling House (Handmade dumplings from scratch)
- Jade Garden (Arguably the most popular dim sum in Seattle)
- Top Gun
We even asked the crew member to send us some promotional materials that we can give away to you, our foodie readers, but we’ll see if they play ball with us. After sending a two-page, food passionate email, the production company returned the favor with a one-lined, “Thanks for the suggestions” email, ha! That’s like asking a waiter to list every recommendation across three menus and then saying, “Hmm… I’ll go with a hot dog!”
I guess I’ll refrain from the ripping unless we get some goods :)
